A night at the county fair

Eric and I took his sisters, Anna (9) and Holly (15) to the County Fair.

Aside from having the sun soak every ounce of energy and pizazz out of us, we had a fun time taking in the sites, sounds and scents of Smalltown, USA.

We ended the night taking in a little Uncle Kracker concert - where Zoey and her two friends met up with us. It was all the girls' first concert and it was a pretty decent concert for a county fair. And can I just say I've never seen sooooo many people and an Eastern Oregon festivity such as this.

(this particular shot wasn't exactly planned, but I really like it.

Thanks Anna, for catching it!)

Well there’s a full moon in the western sky,
And there’s magic in the air.
Ain’t nothin’ I know of, can make you fall in love,
Like a night at the county fair.

On a completely different topic....

My mom is facing some pretty serious health issues right now, and we don't have a lot of answers. And though I'm not one to normally ask (and my mom will probably give me a hard time for even asking, but), your prayers for our family would be much appreciated. Thanks.
